Berry Update 4/27/06 - The berries are turning RED!
Hi gang,
Oh happy days!!!! All of you must have had stern words with the rain Gods. The weather has turned and the berries are getting RED. If this weather keeps up we should be harvesting next week. I'm guessing starting around Friday. That's only GUESSING gang :) :). I know you're being as patient as possible and salivating at the same time. As soon as we have enough to bring in a respectable amount we'll open and YOU will be the first to know about it.
I see a few red berries that can take 3-4 more days of ripening, many white stage berries (1-1.5 weeks away), lots of green (2 weeks away) and TONS of white blossoms (20-30 days away). Keep the pressure on the rain Gods. Let's hold the nice weather (70 degrees is perfect) and let all those blossoms mature! If all goes well we should have a bumper crop during May and thru most of June.
Update: The stand will be in the same location as last year through June. PEP housing (the new owners of the original property) kindly have agreed to let us stay until the new parking lot will be ready on the lot next door. We just have to drag the stand over and get set up!
Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy I can hardly wait to see you!
Cheers,
Sally Strawberry
